I just followed the NTFS Guide and I'm now trying to install the game covers for USBLoader GX. The guide tells me that for USBLoader GX I have to install all the covers on the SD card, but I'm having troubles doing so.

What I did so far was create folders as specified by the guide, but I'm not sure if I should create them myself or if the loader does it automatically. This is what the guide says about the paths to the covers:

I downloaded a cover from gametdb.com and saved it on all of the paths above (simultaneously), but I still can't see the cover art on USB loader GX. How do I fix that? Should the "config" folder really be on the root of the SD card or in the "apps" folder?

By the way, I'm trying to download the covers from my PC and then install them on the SD card.

Also, I am not sure what's the difference between "flat" and "2D" covers. Additionally, is the "Full" cover the "3D" cover or just the regular cover with the back of the game box included?

If you're using a USB drive then that's where you'll want to store your covers.

Covers need to be stored on SD cards if your drive is formatted to WBFS, but FAT32 can allow you to store everything, covers, homebrew apps, etc, on the drive. I'm not sure about NTFS but it should be similar.

I used USB Loader GX in the past and was able to automatically download the covers. Today I use CFG and can just click on Update, then Download Missing Covers, and it downloads any covers that I do not have. Saves them to the drive. I don't even use a memory card anymore.

Thanks, I was fearing connecting to the internet would do something bad, but I have priiloader installed and set to block updates. After some reading, I found out it is safe.

On the other hand, some of the covers were not found on the database...

Actually, if you are using USBLoader GX on an NTFS formatted HDD, you can't save the game covers on the HDD or you may cause your data to be corrupted, according to NTFS Guide (the covers are saved on the SD card). As far as I know, you don't have to put anything on the HDD except the games themselves (if you are using USBLoader GX on an NTFS formatted HDD). But Thanks for the help anyway.
